Leasing and Property Management Practice Question
Question
A broker is supervising a transaction file involving estate for years. The parties need a practical answer before moving forward. Which answer best applies the rule? (Item 31)
Answer choices
- A. It prevents any later disclosure, even when new facts become known.
- B. It applies only to commercial property and never to residential transactions.
- C. Identify a leasehold with a definite beginning and ending date.
- D. It is controlled only by local custom rather than by law, contract, or professional duty.
Correct Answer
C. Identify a leasehold with a definite beginning and ending date.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because estate for years requires candidates to identify a leasehold with a definite beginning and ending date. The other options overstate the effect of custom, oral agreement, escrow, or independent salesperson action and do not reflect safe California exam practice.
